The Giant Mole

 

Although the Giant Mole has constantly been a bit of a joke among serious monster hunters, she has become significantly more difficult with the recent update. She now has several pulverizing attacks which take advantage of the mechanics introduced with the Evolution of Combat and has had her stats upgraded. She is no longer the easiest boss to kill.

 

She has two main attacks: a simple melee attack and the ability to knock rocks out of the ceiling if a player uses a safespot, causing a 200-damage bleed in a 3x3 area. After taking a certain amount of damage, she will dig and emerge in another cavern. Each cavern has a specific special attack:

 

Northwest:

 

The giant mole will summon smaller moles that, when alive, will reduce the damage taken by the giant mole. It is recommend to use AOE abilities, such as ricochet and chain, during this attack, so that the small moles will be killed without losing any time.

 

 

Northeast:

 

The mole will shake the ground, causing rocks to fall from the ceiling of the cave, identical to the attack she does when safespotted. It is recommended to move when the rocks start falling.

 

Southwest:

 

The mole will enter a "berserker" phase, in which she will deal extra damage unless she's stunned. It is recommended to use protect from melee during this phase.

 

Southeast:

 

The mole will freeze players in mud, stunning them, and then she will shatter the mud prison, dealing a lot of damage. She will also make large rocks fall from the ceiling during this phase. It is crucial to use anticipation when the wave begins and to use freedom when stunned.

 

 

Inventory & Equipment

Combat familiars are recommended because a bank is nearby. A spirit terrorbird is nice for players with low agility levels.
Overloads can be downgraded to super potions,
It is recommended to use magic because it increases defense against the mole's melee attacks. Ranged and melee can be used as well.



Robes can be upgraded and downgraded as necessary, but level 60 gear is about as low as you can go without dying regularly. Ranges and meleers should mimic this gear, except the gear should be switched with their melee/ranged equivalents (i.e. Bandos or Armadyl instead of subjugation).
 

 

Requirements

None, although high combat skills are an advantage.
